Study Notes

SPF Algorithm

The Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm uses Dijkstra's algorithm.
Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path based on costs (weights) assigned to edges in a graph.
Further details on Dijkstra's algorithm are available in Algorithms, Data Structures Note II, by Sándor Szénási.

Description

This quiz explores the Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm, focusing on Dijkstra's algorithm for finding the shortest paths in graphs. Understand how costs assigned to edges influence the outcomes of the algorithm. Delve into the specifics as outlined in 'Algorithms, Data Structures Note II' by Sándor Szénási.
